Once a Week (But Not This Week)

My goal when I started the diet was to eat out only once a week. This would help me continue to make healthy food choices, and save a little cash. And for the past two weeks that has worked for me.

This week...not going to happen.

I ate out Monday because of work meetings, will eat out again because of work meetings Wednesday night, and Friday night because of plans made earlier. I'm sure the co-workers will still expect to eat out Friday for lunch, simply out of habit, but this one I can skip.

Still, it's more than I anticipated when shopping for the week, and it's more than I have included in my diet plan. Ah, flexibility. I'll just have to plan accordingly and make sure I get the fruits and vegetables I'll most likely miss in a meal ate out some other time in the day.
